This post is one big catch up like I said in the title. I was trying to do it one post at a time but it was not happening. So here you go. The past month has been full of dance recital's, swimming lesson's, school program's, surgery's, Broadway musicals and elementary school graduation's.

First off I can not believe my oldest child has finished elementary school. It just seems like yesterday that he was starting kindergarten. Now in a few months he will be in JR high. Oh my! If you are thinking Jakob's head looks a little lop sidded it is. He wanted to make sure everyone at school remembered him. If this is how he does it so be it. He looks a little silly, but I think there are worse ways to get attention, so I let him do it.

This has been Jakob's teacher for the last 2 years. I have to say I love her. She is the best teacher the school has. She thinks outside the box and realizes there is more than one way to learn. She has such a good repor with her students and they all love her.
Steve and I were able to go see Les Miserables a few weeks ago. There is something about a live Broadway production that is so moving. I was brought to tears a few times but I have to say I was a little disappointed with some of the performer's this time around.

This year Sara learned all about Utah, and had to do a report on Beaver county. The whole 4th grade did a really cute program about Utah also.

Ryan finished pre-school the end of April this year, so since the older kids still had a month to go in school I decided to put him is swimming lessons. He absolutely loved it.

I was a little nervous about his teacher though. I shouldn't say this but when I first saw him I thought pedophile. The kids sure loved him and he was really cute with them. I did keep a close eye on him though! =)
